Denver local radio station 107.9 KBPI hosted their birthday bash on May 4, 2023 at Fiddlers Green Ampitheater in Greenwood Village, Colorado. With performances by Godsmack, I Prevail, Bad Omens and Fame on Fire.
Godsmack
Kicking off 107.9 Bday Bash was Boston-area hard rock group Godsmack. They infuse a sound influenced by Alice in Chains and Metallica with mystical imagery and percussive tribal rhythms. Part of the late-’90s post-grunge/nu-metal wave, the quartet debuted with a dark and menacing self-titled effort.
